Changing constructor of Entity to take a Key.

Also:
- Dropping dataset and kind from Entity constructor.
- Dropping Entity.from_path factory.
- Removing Connection.dataset().
- helpers.entity_from_protobuf() no longer requires dataset.
- Making Entity.key a data attribute instead of a getter/setter method.
- Removing Entity.dataset() (since no longer stored).
- Making Entity.kind() and Entity.exclude_from_indexes() @Property's.
- Removing Entity._must_dataset (no longer needed).
- Adding optional connection argument to Entity.save() and Entity.reload().
- Making Entity.save() and Entity.reload() return nothing.
- Updating regression/datastore.py for changes.
